OK BoRAT, what did you do? They are hiding your text.

Anyway, I don't need much of what outer offers any more. I suppose I could go in and do nothing.I'm curious how I would score.

Did that last outers got in top 50k so 60 cons and 800 upgrade tokens, plus the 100 rubies for starting. Doing it this time and most likely every time from now on as it offers nothing for me now..

I will look for your castle in there.  Could use another abandoned place for easy points...…….

Actually, with the bird, I can go in with a day left and never get attacked.  I see no reason to avoid working the system.

you won't get the 100 rubies for entering only, you get back what is left from what you spend.!!

No bird either.  Not worth attacking me though. This is the point swap version and I'm in the worst bracket.  Free stuff for me though.

@bucketofsquid (US1)  Even without swapping brackets, the Daily Duties count.............

I do agree outers need a little sense inserted on the rank swap bug....this needs sorted nextime.

For me and many it gives us rewards of similar value to kings....difference is no need to spend heavy in this unlike kings where guys are chasing a level 20 keep item and a 900 po item....

GGE LISTEN....THIS PO YOU OFFER IS CLEVER.....make it look special....IT MUST GIVE MIKE OR PHIL A RARE ROD ON TO GO FOR IT.7 ..KINGS REQUIRES DEDICATION AND SPEND TO WIN ALLIGNED WITH TIME....GIVE THEM WHAT THEY DESERVE....needs to be a trophy but alonsgide this offer a big incentive for top 10........your prizes of both build  tools and upgrade are exceptional but glitch needs sorted and about all a better more  special po to make king dong the thing he wants to parade not look like all.... po offered are mint but need to be induvidual looking so when i look at a castle you see the item...

Just be wse.....alot you doing is fatastic but big boys like big prizes...keeps them active.

Just join, then go back to your main account. You will still get some ticket stuff at very least for participation, while saving load of time that could be used to level main account.

outer is still fucked up

Well this is interesting:  The global effects on the outers that started last night ended before the event took points today, AND the point multiplier went back to one from the 5 it was.  This has happened with about an hour to go until the day's point collection.  Changing the point multiplier(and global effect) for the day that late in the point day with no warning is really, really messed up.  Especially when it's the last day of the event and it has NEVER been done before.  Shafts those that were relying on the  higher point multiplier to reach an overall finish level, while rewarding those that would have been pushed down.

@Crom Cruach  Can you get an explanation/clarification for us please on whether this was intended to be this way(and why/logic behind the decission) and/or what happened if not intended.

This has been reported before. Happened exactly the same way the previous two Outer Realms events.
At midnight German time, half an hour before the final point calculation, all offers and tents disappear and the x5 multiplier reduces to x1, so effectively, the x5 is never used, because the previous day still finished with x4.
I cannot imagine that this is intended, but we all know how "fast" bugs get fixed when they don't directly harm GGE finances. Of course, indirectly it does harm GGE finances, but to see that one would need long-term vision.

This is not intended to happen and I have reported it to QA just now. I will see what the problem is and let you know here if there is any information. Thanks for reporting this to me.

Has anyone got the rewards from outers - the daily duty points accumulator . There where some 'good' gems on offer for hitting 240 points in the event but at the moment i;m not seeing them in main stores.

[5070361] Crom Cruach [Community Manager] :: Aug. 26, 2019, 9:53 a.m.

Okay so there was a problem with the Outer Realms, they were scheduled differently than before and this was causing the multiplier to expire early. We have ensured that this shouldn't happen again. Sorry for the inconvenience everyone.

and the duty points ...the gems and build tokens rewards...have they been paid out or still lost in the system

You only get your top reward, not all the displayed "earned" rewards.
I ended up with 240 points and did receive one gem (I hope), plus 20 build tokens and 80 upgrade tokens (I'm sure), which was indeed the reward for 240 points.
This "display glitch" has been there since the introduction of the daily duties.
Support is fully aware of the issue, but I guess there are more important issues to solve first.

P.S.
Thanks Crom. I'm not holding my breath but still have good hope. :-)

I bought some rubies in OR this time round and have yet to receive them.  Some of my teammates report having received their OR rewards and some haven't

The bugs are annoying and the inconsistency is annoying too.  I should have listened to my Jimminy Cricket and not done it at all.

"Them" meaning rubies or rewards?
